The Great Sperm Race???????

[TTC4+yrs]

Hi Ladies!

I am getting so frusturated with TTC and my obsession with symptom spotting, but here I go....

I BD on the 7th but was suppose to Ov on the 9th, we didn't get a chance to BD again as OH has been working like crazy. Well on the 11th, 12th and 13th I had (tmi sorry) brown discharge only when I went to the washroom.... I am thinking it was Ov spotting but isn't Ov spotting supposed to happen during Ov and not a few days after? Also I have been constipated, tired, had terrible headaches and sore boobs.....

I am probably reading WAY too much into this but always manage to hang on to some hope that it will actually happen for me.... Anyone else experience this and get a BFP?

I watched online a documentary called ' The Great Sperm Race' and it was soooooo interesting, apparently from ejaculation it takes 36 hours for the sperm to reach the fallopian tube, that just blew my mind as I had no idea it takes that long..... I would highly recommend watching this.....

Well thats enough rambling for me, hopefully I get some replies to this post

I just googled 'The Great Sperm Race' and it came up, it was a documentry on the Discovery Channel a few months ago..... It was very interesting and informative, I really had no idea the battle that sperm face....

Hope you get your BFP too

i watched it with DH wen it was on tv! we both sat in stunned silence apart from the occasional 'OMG' lol! it was soooo interesting & showed things i never ever knew!!its def worth a watch, tho it did leave me & DH a bit deflated as it seems virually impossible to get preg from the facts they give lol!

wen i was younger i thought 'have sex once & let motherhood begin' how wrong was i?!?!
